"We always have people coming in and out all the time but never everybody coming in all at one time," Burns said.

Due to the customer outpouring of support in the poll, Rite Spot will get a visit from statewide entertainment reporter John "Gonzo" Gonzalez and other MLive reporters 10 a.m. Wednesday, May 21.

Burns explained that the restaurant became a part of her life in 2004 when her husband Leon Burns decided to buy it.

"My husband is a police officer and this used to be a little cop shop," Natasha Burns said of the former Tony's Restaurant.

"My husband and another police officer didn't want to see it close," she said.

Leon Burn's partner left the business and his wife left her career in the education field to help run the restaurant with an eclectic menu from breakfast to burgers to the tacos that got them nominated for our latest Michigan's Best search.

As Natasha Burns looks out at her full restaurant with customers waiting for take-out orders and employees scrambling to get the orders in their hands, she said the two groups are her favorite part of running the business.

"I like our staff; I like the people; I like the fact that they like our food and want to come back," Burns said. "They're congratulating us and we are planning an appreciation day too for those that voted for us."

If you are a Rite Spot fanatic or if you've never tried the food inside the quaint dine-in and take-out establishment, join us as we try their tacos.

Rite Spot is open Monday through Wednesday and Saturday from 8 a.m. until 5 p.m. and Thursday and Friday from 8 a.m. until 8 p.m.
